Thoughts on Lyra??

I came across the name Lyra [Lie-Ra] on another thread and the more I say it the more I fall in love with it. It's unique, but beautiful and simple and a bit mysterious. I also love the literary and musical connection, and the fact that it is a constellation. What is your impression of this name?

Lyra is the heroine of one of my favorite book series of all time (His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman). It is strongly connected to that series, so I would suggest finding out more about the books (if you haven't read them) before you select the name. But I think it is gorgeous. LyraVictoria is lovely.
